Story
Abby is the sweetest kitty you will ever know. She is calm and gets along with other cats and dogs. She is never a problem except a little matted hair in the springtime. She has an almost soundless meow. She is a chow hound and loves her snacks, but never gets on a counter or table. She has a very funny walk and run. She looks like she is part raccoon. She will snuggle up when she feels like it, not when you want her to. She will always be waiting for you to come home so she can say hello, how was your day? If you let her on the bed, she will come over to say hello, then go to the corner of the bed to nap. She is an adult, but well worth the years she still has with you.

Story
Oliver was adopted by my wife in late 2018. Makes him 6 yrs old. Was a feisty kitten. Very entertaining. Still runs around and only cat we have ever had that plays with the balls in circular ring. Very friendly and affectionate. He is shy around strangers and reacts to loud noise or sudden movements by running and hiding. He will snuggle up once he gets to know you. If you leave food out on a counter, he will go for it in the night. A very funny young man. My wife passed away, and I am down sizing, selling our house and moving to an apartment. Oliver will make any home a happy place. He gets along with our other older female Abby very well, but never warmed up to a friendly dog that spent some time with us.

Friendly, gentle, loving, quiet, mellow indoor/outdoor cat needs a new forever home as I am moving this summer. Prefers indoors but likes to go out when the weather is nice. Angus is a very sweet cat. He is a good companion and has a big purr. Angus requires pills twice daily for low thyroid hormone condition. He loves the pills in a wrap so this is easy. Can provide a supply of meds.
